Keeping its tradition of the last six years alive at AIMIT, St Aloysius College partnering with Mangalore Lions Club International District 317-D will organize the   blood donation camp at the campus. Running for the seventh year in a succession, this life saving mission is the brain-child of Fr Denzil Lobo, SJ, director, AIMIT.

A street play will be conducted at 3 pm on November 26, at various venues in and around Beeri, to create awareness about donating blood and to encourage the youth to come forward for this noble cause.

AIMIT, St Aloysius College, believes that organizing blood donation camps on a regular basis is very important. It believes that all sections of society should contribute towards the society and save lives. All are invited to take an active part in this noble cause.
